​Menu Labeling Final Rule

5/7/2019

 
​[Update May 7, 2019] 
Menu Labeling Compliance Guideline​

Today marks the first anniversary of menu labeling compliance and begins official enforcement of the law. Restaurants with 20 or more locations operating under the same name, should currently be complying with menu labeling regulations. However, during the past year, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) focused on education and worked with establishments to help them comply with the menu labeling regulations.

The National Restaurant Association developed resources to help members understand the regulations and comply; download the Menu Labeling Compliance Guide. 


[Posted May 7, 2018]
Menu Labeling Regulations Effective 

The final rules for menu labeling apply to restaurants and similar retail food establishments if they are part of a chain of 20 or more locations, doing business under the same name, offering for sale substantially the same menu items and offering for sale restaurant-type foods. Read the latest update on guidance for the rule: FDA Finalizes Guidance to Help Food Establishments Meet Menu Labeling Requirements.

The FDA has stated their intention to educate restaurants and foodservice establishments during this first year of implementation without issuing penalties. 

In May 2017, based on comments received, FDA is extending the compliance date for menu labeling requirements from May 5, 2017 to May 7, 2018. This extension allowed for further consideration of what opportunities there may be to reduce costs and enhance the flexibility of these requirements beyond those reflected in the final rule. For more information see, the Federal Register Notice Announcing the May 7, 2018 Compliance Date.

These rules are good. Now, one needs to submit menu cover samples for menu labeling. FDA has done a great job.
